34 years old, a few injuries here and there
when he knows he's beaten, kind of slows up and doesn't try as hard ( my opinion )

He's looking for another Title, but don't think he will get it in LA. unless they get him help, a lot of help

how long does he have left ?

He will make it to 40, possibly a little longer. Not saying he will be top-notch for the remainder of his career, but he will continue to age gracefully.

I think he will get one more title. Obviously, he will need help though. His roster is complete shit right now.

At a top 10 player level? 0

He will bounce around for another 4 or 5 years unable to deal with father time as he realizes his creativity and popularity was SOLELY based on his on court abilities. Hopefully he will not piss to much money down these moronic side projects and have to declare bankruptcy in 10 years. He was one of the best I've ever seen, but its over.

Next year will determine his future. He has the post-season off, we assume he will continue to work on his game (if he has time away from his television shows and producing gigs) and if the team makes a deep run and shows promise, he will stick around. If not, I think he will hang it up as his focus and passion has moved on to Hollywood.

He won't likely quit, even when he becomes a below average player. I believe he has a goal of trying to become career points leader, almost certain that is Wilt C, or at least to # 2 or 3. I know he is in top 10, probably like 6 or7, now !

Lebron will damage his legacy if he has mire years like this one where he shows he is still a great player and puts up the same numbers as he always has yet the team will be picking early on lottery.

makes a case for his detractors that will say “ yeah well... he did all of that in the east, in the west he can’t even lead a team to the playoffs” in a league where over half the teams are in the playoffs.

Is he the only all star not in the playoffs?

Makes him look bad.

Wilt C is #6 all time scoring, passed a couple weeks back by Dirk @swish41

LBJ currently #4.....will pass Kobe in first week of next season (2019-20), Karl Malone in following mid season 2020-21 and Kareem early in 2021-22

check that...with four games remaining *this season* he trails Kobe by just 100 so a decent shot to hit #3 in coming week

His production this season is almost exactly what he put up last two years in CLE -- in other words, it is the third of three best seasons production-wise for his entire career

Only the haters see him as *slowing down*

Yeah LeBron will be up there just because of longevity. Truth is he is one of the most efficient players in history, shooting about 50% for career as a wing player. He will be the top scorer ever, and scoring isn't even the strongest part of his game...passing is.
